Check it out! Ron Paul, Lew Rockwell, and the Mises Institute are in the news! I miss seeing Ol' RP in the news all the time. The guy who wrote the article is a smug idiot like usual who is trying discredit him and us... big surpise. But any news is good news and the people in the comments aren't falling for it!

the Ludwig von Mises Institute, a think tank with “deep ties to the neo-Confederate movement,”
... whose main "tie to the neo-Conferate movement" is someone who is anti slavery. Not to mention that the LvMI is named after a Jew and that the director of the Mises Academy and editor Mises.org is Hispanic lol
I still remember the time when some lefty on the forum accused one of the mods of being white when, in reality, the mod was an ethnic minority lol

Someone who invests in gold or silver coins is subject to capital gains taxes if they eventually are sold for a profit. But if those coins are "legal tender,'' then the exchange of those for dollars -- even at a gain -- would be tax exempt.
"This would result in lost revenue to the state, while giving businesses that buy and sell collectable coins or currency originally authorized by Congress an unfair tax advantage,'' the governor wrote.
Stupid Nazi bitch. Nothing I wouldn't expect from any governor or politician, but boy does it make my blood boil when they announce their anti-wealth stance in the open. And the cluelessness. As if most gold and silver sold isn't done on a cash basis. Anyone who reports their "earnings" on metals deserves the kick in the balls they get. Just wash away all the benefits, the only real point in doing it in the first place.

I'm loving it. There's virtually nothing they can do. If there's one thing even typical statists jealously defend, it's freedom of speech and technology (sure, IP, but even that's going by the wayside as fast as tech growth itself. See "Wenzel has no positive position because...")
The only way to stop this kind of thing would be to outlaw 3D printing. Kind of like the only way to stop the spred of info is to shut down the Internet. There's no way that would even come close to flying today, and people are waking up more all the time. (Exhibit A only a few posts above)
On a somewhat related note, it's luddite elitist nonsense like this that really doesn't help this douchebag's case that he isn't a disinfo agent...
there is absolutely nothing they can do.

it doesnt matter if you want to go low tech or high tech, its way more expensive/difficult to keep people in line than it is to get out of line, the only way is to convince them to stay in line. people stay in line because they think its better for them, sometimes that is true in the case of the individual. its never true in the case of all individuals due to spontaneous order and creative destruction. people are only able to flourish in an egalitarian rights society, and people only leave that setting because they believe in lies and bad ideology. thats why the internet is so important, and thats why piratebox is also important.
This was demonstrated following the 7 July 2005 London bombings and again after Hurricane Katrina. There are only 500 – 600 N.J. State Troopers on-duty at any given time.4 Only about twenty-five of those Troopers are assigned to the NJSP-MSB. When alert levels were raised last July, an additional 200 Troopers were activated in overtime status. Uniformed Troopers were not available, however, to assist with security for the hi-capacity ferries which transit from New Jersey to Manhattan 1,000 times per day.5 Instead, the U.S. Coast Guard and local police officers undertook those efforts. Many of those local officers, regretfully, were recalled after only three days because their property-tax reliant agencies could not absorb the “overtime costs.” Had the Naval Militia-JC been permitted to support the State Police, both the shore side and ferry missions could have been sustained without exhausting local property-tax based budgetary resources which eventually required State reimbursement. With a relatively small investment in the Naval Militia-JC, the State will revitalize a flexible, adaptable, multi-mission state anti-terrorism force with the same authority as the N.J. National Guard, but structured to stretch dimes into dollars using a combination of volunteer and per diem service. At full strength the Naval Militia-JC can leverage the resources of 2,000 Reservists and 1,000 State Guardsmen to deliver 285,000 unpaid man- hours of service each year to deploy a maritime security force of 78 servicemen each day for any approved mission with no salary, health care, pension, vacation, sick day, or holiday-pay related costs to the Department of Military and Veterans Affairs (DMAVA). http://www.njnavy.com/assets/documents/NMF%20Report%2030JAN06.pdf looks like the goobermint is running out of goobers because the mint isnt printing fast enough. soon youll be able to pay them in functional plastic gns yukyukyuk Keep the faith, Strannix. -Casey Ryback, Under Siege (Steven Seagal) | Post Points: 5
I agree that stuff like that contributes to media overexposure and supports the transhumanist agenda somewhat. the part thats missing is the freedom of choice. theyre not going to make you wear these idiotic glasses. the thing to watch out for is the smartphones. and I love it when a guy on the internet whines about technology in general, or some new thing because its new. other than that, its good to get open source new tech, from what I understand glass is beta and is supposed to spur market innovation in terms of new apps and hardware. warez. isnt that what the kidz cazizzle it nizzow?
it doesnt matter if they try to staple google glass to everyones head anyway

Here is where Richards and I part company. DOD is, as he recognizes, Gosplan. But his alternative, at least for a rollback force, includes privatizing the fighting function. The problem with this is that as the state privatizes security functions, for foreign wars or here at home, it strikes at its own reason for being and thus accelerates its crisis of legitimacy, which lies at the heart of 4GW. Once security is privatized, why have a state at all? Conveniently, private armies have a long history of overthrowing states. There is good reason why the rising state of the 17th century abolished private armies and forcefully asserted a monopoly on violence.

thats the quandary from the p.o.v. of a professional military strategist.

The question of what operational art means in Fourth Generation war remains open. I don't know of any general answer. The problem is that the enemy's strategic hinges, or centers of gravity, tend to be intangible: how do you use tactical engagements or operational maneuver to strike targets such as family or clan honor, gang loyalties, ideological convictions or belief in a particular god? After World War II, the most operationally competent armies in the world were the Red Army and the IDF. Yet both lost Fourth Generation wars, the Soviets in Afghanistan and the Israelis in Lebanon, because they could not figure out how to act operationally against 4GW enemies. Reduced to fighting an endless series of strategically meaningless tactical engagements, both were forced to withdraw. The U.S. military now finds itself in the same situation in Afghanistan and Iraq. Unfortunately, it appears our Fourth Generation opponents have figured out a way to act operationally against us. I touched on this in an earlier column, but as I thought more about it, I decided that what is happening deserves fuller consideration. What our opponents are doing is brilliantly simple. By relying mostly on IEDs to attack us, they have created a situation where our troops have no one to shoot back at. That, in turn, ramps up the troops' frustration level to the point where two things happen: our morale collapses and our troops take their frustration out on the local population. Both results have strategic significance, and at least the potential of being strategically decisive, the first because it affects American home front morale and the second because it drives the local population to identify with the insurgents instead of the government we are trying to support.

I'm not quite sure what Kimbo Slice not knowing how to punch has to do with it, but yeah I guess.
because you can take somebody out from across the room regardless of what they have in their hands. if that happened enough times, that means that agents of the state would have to interact with people from greater distances. you cant control a population from that far away, you cant talk to them or get them to do what you want. you have to interact with people to manage them, persuade them, and coerce them. that closeness exposes the agents of the state to nontelegraphic strikes, which means they have to work in larger teams. larger teams strains manpower and raises their profile, and in these ways limits the amount of territory that can be controlled. its the fourth generation war death spiral.
